It doesn't make commercial sense to send a 747 load of passengers to BKK, HKG or SIN from either OZ or the UK in the hope that a BA or QF 747 will be there waiting to take them on to their destination. There are too many variables to be able to deliver that consistently.
In his first public speech since taking over as CEO, Joyce told attendees at the Australia-Israel Chamber of Commerce luncheon in Sydney yesterday"
I said in another thread that AJ is either a good thing or he is smarter than GD and we will see more spin than in a cricket match with Shane Warne.
He claimed that the potential tie-up would give Qantas "global scale," allowing it to "grow and enhance" its services and "deliver significant revenue and cost synergies." But the carrier does not need BA, he added. "Qantas comes to these negotiations from a position of strength. We will only proceed with this transaction if we are assured that it will maximize value for Qantas shareholders."

BA Merger
When have Qf Board members done anything for the shareholders, more likely they will want a bigger pay rise if this merger goes ahead for no reason, they are so over paid as it is now, from the CEO to the director of engineering...

Much of what you QF guys state apply equally to our erstwhile group of General Managers / Directors. A number have sought further private medical cover in the hope of having the 'first' seats removed from their backsides.
